The prestigious BRIT Awards ceremony is set for a significant shake-up, with a landmark 70 per cent of this year's nominations going to female or non-binary artists. Leading the charge are rising star Lola Young and soulful singer Olivia Dean, both picking up five nominations apiece. Hot on their heels is comeback queen Lily Allen, who has earned three nods for her widely praised fifth studio album, West End Girl.

The 40 year old singer drew on the painful breakdown of her marriage to Stranger Things actor David Harbour, and his alleged infidelities during their time together, as the inspiration behind the record. Allen will lock horns with both Young and Dean in the coveted Artist Of The Year category, whilst also battling it out for Album Of The Year and Pop Act.

Lola, 24, is additionally shortlisted for Breakthrough Artist and Alternative/Rock Act, though whether she will grace the ceremony in person remains uncertain. Following the announcement, she gushed: "Five BRIT nominations, how is this even possible? I've had this dream a thousand times, so I'm slightly convinced that my alarm clock is about to wake me up. Seriously, this means so much to me. I am so grateful for this moment and to be nominated alongside the incredible other nominees."


Olivia, 26, made history by becoming the first woman since Adele in 2021 to simultaneously top both the UK singles and albums charts, achieving the feat with her track Man I Need and album The Art Of Loving, both released in 2025.

She has been nominated across five categories. and will be performing at the Award ceremony. '

"To go from being a student of The BRIT School in the crowd to being a performer 10 years later is really crazy, and I'm so excited to see everyone in Manchester," the singer shared in January.


Elsewhere, British rapper Dave has been recognised in three categories: Artist Of The Year, Album Of The Year, and Hip Hop/Grime/Rap Act. The 27 year old released his third studio album, The Boy Who Played The Harp, in 2025 and has since become the first British rap artist to debut three albums at number one in the UK's official chart.

Raye has been recognised in just one category this year, after scooping a record-breaking six awards last year. The singer, 28, claimed the first award of the evening, Song of the Year for her smash hit Escapism ft 070 Shake, before also walking away with the R&B Act gong and Best New Artist. She currently holds the record for the most BRIT Awards won at a single ceremony, a record which previously stood at four, jointly held by Blur in 1995, Adele in 2016, and Harry Styles in 2023.
